I got this game for $1, which is about all I would be willing to pay for it. It's fine--not great. The political aspect of it is two dimensional--you can increase or decrease funding for various services (education, health care, etc.), but you can't actually enact new policies as far as I can tell. In contrast to, for example, Victoria II, you're not able to enact voting reforms, changes to working conditions, etc.

The military part of the game is too opaque to be fun. You can build various kinds of military units and send them at the enemy's troops, but there's not enough information about any of your units or the enemy's units to tell you what will work and what won't.

Diplomacy is weird and in some ways simply non-functional. In one game, another country declared war on me and despite having every treaty in the book--including a "formal alliance" and a defense pact--my "ally" never joined the war on my side. The existence of a "UN" body is theoretically interesting but was not done in a way that was meaningful. There is no way for you to propose resolutions or do anything interactive with it; it really just functions as a "global approval" feature to keep countries from doing too much crazy ♥♥♥♥ (and even then doesn't do much if you get "kicked out").

Meanwhile, industry is unrealistic. Even in strictly capitalist countries, there is no private development: anything that you want to build has to be built by the government. There is no way to automate it and no way to do build it on a grand scale. This means that if you play a big country like the US, China, or Russia, it's almost impossible to make any meaningful changes to your economy unless you want to spend hours clicking to build new factories.
